Hi folks.

Many of you probably have no idea who I am but I'm Josh (Colorfinger) Jones. I used to do a bit of stuff for the front page (Flash Tub) and various other things back in ye olde days of SA, and I also used to play a lot of piano in GBS in ye slightly less olde days. For the last four years, I've been working on a book, called Intermission, which is a story about a man waking up in his apartment, only to discover that he is dead. He rapidly becomes embroiled in a struggle between various factions in an afterlife city, and has to figure out how to navigate the mess. It's a mix of dystopian speculative sci-fi ideas, and I'm pretty proud of how book 1 has come out.

Unfortunately so far, the book has been live on Amazon for a few days, and one person has rated it 2 stars after (based on my dashboard) reading 4 pages on Kindle. Which isn't great. Please take a look if you feel so inclined. I hope you enjoy it. And if you don't, that's okay too.

I think Fahrenheit is better for weather
I looked at the Amazon page.
This sentence from the end of the blurb is kind of odd

quote:

Meanwhile trouble stirs nearby, as a family even more powerful than even the city’s guardians seek to [...]
especially since said guardians aren't even established in the rest of that little paragraph.

I wish you best of luck, but I don't think this story is for me. I'm just not into afterlife stories.

Thanks for taking a look!

I've actually had similar feedback from a couple of people. I am going to be replacing the cover and the copy on the back soon so that it better represents the story.
